    the N lead of one toroid will be connected to the N lead of the other toroid.

    when these connected leads are powered up you should use a clamp meter set on AC AMPS and see a reading of around 1.0 to 1.4 amps.
    somewhere close depending on what type of toroid you use.

    thanks

    Bromikey,
    According to what Clarence posted, you have the #4AWG wire connected wrong in your schematic. That would make both windings around the toroids in the same direction would it not? Bottom connected to bottom, top connected to top. I could be wrong. That's how I see it. Clarence do you mean with the toroids laying flat or as the schematic is pictured?

    IN A PREVIOUS POST!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'll recover it in a VERY BASIC kindergarten level so that perception might REIGN!
    1. I stated that I had noticed an intermittent problem
    2. 2. I stated something that I thought could ALSO (not entirely) have
    contributed to the problem.
    3. 3.I stated that I KNEW how to cure the problem and was going to do so.
    4. family reasons(relatives) and local conditions have prevented me from
    doing ANYTHING TO DATE!
    5. If you think I am going to rush out to do something that is disruptive to
    myself and my personal environment just to satisfy someones personal
    whim-------you better think AGAIN!

    I will do what I need to do as it fits my needs - not yours - now GET OFF IT!

    Go BACK to PAGE 2 POST #44 and put some real eyeballs on!

    Ladies and Gentlemen

    If I may let me introduce to some of the engineering crowd a revised
    winding document of industry standards from Tortran
    (Toroidal Transformer AKA Tortran)

    This is a compilation of 3 of Clarence picture drawings.

    Only the exciter section is shown in this 3 part series.

    This might add to our bank of schematics to help
    visualize both primary and secondary winding
    with their opposing winding directions.

    Winding the secondarys

    Hello Luc2010,

    I have attached again the photo of a correctly wound toroid.

    It is important that you set the toroid in front of you with the primary lead wires on the right side of you and the open space of the core directly in front of your chest.having done that then look at the photo of the correctly wound
    secondary coil and that is what it should look like when you are through

    both the secondary windings are to be done exactly the same.

    when you go to hook the wires together they ARE NOT HOOKED IN A FIGURE EIGHT. keep doing that and you will smoke a couple more of them.

    the two TOP WIRES HOOK TOGETHER!

    The two BOTTOM WIRES HOOK TOGETHER!

    that should eliminate your problems for you.
    Also keep the windings TIGHT UP AGAINST the core
    to make everything work effectively. and tye wrap them in place!!
    sloppy work gives sloppy performance!

    thanks.

    Clarence

    Hello Clarence. Your new shop cart layout sounds ideal. When you tried wider ground rod spacing initially, I would guess it was with less ground rods. The stuff about having a minimum of 6 feet spacing for ground rods is not just theory, as it is widely in practical use in the electrical power industry. They use this because it has been long since well established that it provides a lower resistance connection to earth ground. I am working on my own experiments right now in a different area, but I will be following along with how you and others are progressing in your experiments.
    Happy experimenting everyone!

Something else to consider however is the information I pointed out yesterday, which is well established in the electrical power industry, that wider spacing between ground rods will give a lower resistance connection to the earth. The ideal spacing between ground rods was listed as about 25 feet (7.6 meters), with around 6 foot spacing being a compromise spacing.

    Barbosa and Leal were said to have advised a person who obtained one of their captor devices from them to use 40 ground rods of 1.4 inch to 2 inch diameter, spaced over an area of 50 x 30 meters, which I calculated out to be a ground rod spacing of approximately 23 feet (7 meters). Since this information came from someone who was said to have obtained a device directly from Barbosa and Leal, it is worth considering. This recommended ground rod spacing mentioned of around 7 meters spacing between ground rods is consistent with what would be considered to be around an ideal spacing for ground rods for lowest resistance earth ground connection.

    A 50 x 30 meter area of ground is a large area which is probably not very practical for most people, and the recommendation of using 1.4 inch to 2 inch diameter pipe would also seem to be quite difficult to embed in the ground, and there would be 40 of these to embed in the ground. I have to wonder if Barbosa and Leal specified a very difficult to meet ground rod requirement for their device that few people could realistically achieve, so that if people came back to them and said the device was not working, they could say that, well, you didn't install the ground rods to their stringent requirements, so that is why the device is not working. It could possibly be that you really do need such a large ground rod arrangement in place however. If such a major ground rod grid is necessary, it makes me wonder how Barbosa and Leal could have demonstrated their devices at different locations, if they have done so, as it is not likely these demo locations would have such an expansive earth ground system in place. If Barbosa and Leal have demonstrated their devices at different locations, then it seems the earth ground requirements at these different locations should have been a major obstacle to putting on such a demo.

    Edit: Clarence, if you think that you are close to achieving a self runner, then maybe increasing the spacing of your ground rods to something like six feet, wherever you can manage it, will be enough to get you where you need to be.
    Possibly even just having 30 ground rods total with 6 foot spacing may be better than 60 ground rods with 3 foot spacing. It may not be that your earth ground is so bad in your area, although that is certainly possible. It may just be that you have your ground rods spaced too close together.


    You PEOPLE are just NOT GRASPING what I am SAYING!!! If you could at LEAST grasp at a KINDERGARTEN level of what I am SAYING, you would be there ALREADY!!!
    Just kidding.

    Hello LEVEL,

    I have used various length spacing from the beginning, and reconfigured it as I went! ie., 10', 8',6',4', to 3'.

    want to quess which gave the best AVI (average voltage improvement?
    I'll never tell-- I'm still useing the 3'.

    Performance is the best judge and NOT theory.

    I am in the process of rebuilding my unit on a nice larger shop cart I bought
    so as to have more room on the top level for Captor and circuits and put Charger,Battery ,and inverter on bottom - still visible but not in the way.

    it will be awhile before I can run it but OH well.
    here it has rained 8" in 6 days and rained again last night and into this morning. so wet the grass has a sour smell (swamp like effect).
    looking forward to the summer mode when everything returns to normal.
    I like the heat!

    thanks for listening

    Clarence

    did't catch the hidden deception about the transformer type used. just like a big dummy I used a MOT and THAT was a definite FARCE! I smoked a set of looped secondary wires into VAPOR in less than 5 seconds with a single 7AH
    battery!! that was a BIG --O S---! I did some more reasearch and found that they were Actually using Toroids. so I've been good ever since.

    the next later thing I learned was that I simply needed a LARGER AH battery.
    I already they knew they were using the Captor output to self run the device - they openly said so various times. that wasn't a hidden secret
    as far as I'm concerned. the charger keeps the batt at 12-13 v up and down.

    my location here for ground potential is lousy to say the least and at times
    even with sixty rods I can tell that I need another 10 to 20.
    when it rains here the potential drops off to under the needed rms voltage
    to consistently carry higher loads. and it has been raining here the last 3 days. so what that does is keep the charger from max performance
    power wise and the battery voltage because of it will ever sooooo slowly
    drop. the last time during rain time I ran it for over 4 + hours and it went
    from 13+ to 12 so i removed the loads and let it charge.

    so you SEE I have to take my OWN advice about how to MAKE SURE that enough rods + about ten more or so are in place to prevent problems!!

    BUT know definitely that this type unit is a winner.
    Hope all that helps. I did not mean to ignore you - the time delay was because i simply overlooked your post . I apologize for that Sir.

    Thanks for listening.

    @all ,this guy has an Over unity that self run, since he could put off the load for the system to self charge his battery. in other word his system could run it parts and still charge battery. Here the size of charger come to play while still bearing in mind numbers of rod s

    yes B&L in their 2013 demonstration did power their toroid Captor with mains power which only consumed 0.10 amps by the toroids. and that was their point at that time. however the major power that lit their 6 ea 1000 watt lights come from the ground source that he was showing when he lifted and pulled on the green wire to get the audience attention! the phase of the mains he was using also was powering a small amout and that was reflected back thru the meter to the power company so that he was't cheating the power company. they have a SWER type utility system over there.
    Single Wire Electrical Rurality.

    this unit with the battery and inverter is its OWN SWER system. ground input by inverter neutral and then ground return as neutral with inverter phase. the powered return neutral receiving most of its power from the earth. you can test like that when you get back. since the actual mains power you would be using is reflected back through the meter to the utility company and you would be paying for what you use is legal but I would NOT
    do it often. just imagine if you were a utility co and you found that somebody was using you for a Guinea pig and and then just flipping you a few quarters.I don't think they would be happy.

    I think that's why the Brazilian power company created difficulties for Barbosa and Leal when they investigated and saw how their system could limit some of their Company revenues. I would be pissed.

    that's why I love my unit. It's just me in my unpolluted world doing what I like with out disturbing any others as long as I'm here.


    Thanks for listening.

    Tortran designs

    Here is the answer right from Tortran. They offer free design tech support so here we can see they use "grain oriented"

    The good stuff

    Download it and enjoy. Now you are all transformer specialist

    This is Tortran's design guide free to all

    To further clarify some of my last statements concerning toroidal core material i refer you to the industry standards. Sales people say many things over the phone that are not exactly right technically.

    For instance a salesmen might say that the new toroid materials are a lot like a ferrite material, in that they not like the laminate cores of the past 100 years.

    And that is correct. However the industry standards keep changing and transformer specialists are needed these days. HI.

    Tortran Alpha core direct division uses the latest NON-OLD STYLE LAMINATE iron cores. And these cores are not unlike designs using ferrite material because the iron dust is aligned before transformer assembly takes place.

    This is a space age technology and if you are trying to use the old style laminates such as a Microwave Oven Transformer cores to build a B&L device, man are you in for a big surprise.

    Not only is a toroidal core far superior concerning losses using past core materials the new stuff Tortran is offering is better yet.

    Here is your document from DIGIKEY eat the whole thing if you are a transformer freak. That's me

    Yeah Clarence that is a good post man thanks. Post 44

    I got to reread this stuff again. Thank you for sticking to your guns, standing tall. That is what I need.

    Such and open and honest post about your personal struggle to get extra
    energy. I understood everything you ever said and have always received
    your gift. What a generous offering to us who desire to be free from the energy enslavement's.

    The transformers are not a bad price $125 so anyone can afford them. Buying the rods might cost me more so i am looking around.

    You are right about some never being able to grasp the concept of getting
    energy from the earth and no matter what you say or giving more proof simply does not change their made up minds.

    The main thing is that your project is in the public eye now. This is a thrilling device for all.

The grain oriented silicon steel is formed into thin bands and wound into a toroid. There may be other materials used in 50Hz/60Hz power toroids, but the grain oriented silicon steel material seems to be quite common these days.
    Yes you are correct, thanks for clearing this very important fact up. Clarence does not know everything about transformers but that is not needed to make one B&L system work well.

    Especially if he is privy to inside information.

    Thanks again level.
